Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Cooked white or brown rice
- 2 cups Black beans, rinsed and drained
- 1.5 cups Shredded cheddar or Mexican-blend cheese
- 1 cup Salsa
- 1 cup Frozen corn kernels, thawed
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon Chili powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 8 pieces Large flour tortillas (10-inch size)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked rice, black beans, shredded cheese, salsa, thawed corn, cumin, chili powder, and salt. Mix until all ingredients are evenly distributed.
Prepare your workspace by laying out a large sheet of parchment paper or a clean surface for assembling the burritos.
Warm the tortillas slightly in the microwave (about 20 seconds) to make them more pliable for wrapping.
Lay one tortilla flat and place approximately 1/2 cup of the filling in the center, leaving about 1-2 inches of space at the edges.
Fold the sides of the tortilla inwards over the filling, then roll it up tightly from the bottom to create a burrito. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling.
To store for freezing, wrap each burrito individually in aluminum foil or parchment paper, then place them in a freezer-safe zip-top bag or airtight container. Label the bag with the date and contents.
To reheat from frozen, remove the burrito from its wrapping and microwave it on high for 2-3 minutes, or until heated through. Alternatively, bake in a 375°F (190°C) oven for 25-30 minutes, wrapped in foil.
Serve as-is or with your favorite toppings such as sour cream, guacamole, or hot sauce!
